More thoughts on Mediawiki

Been thinking more about what the problem is with “MediaWiki”:http://www.mediawiki.org that’s stopping me from using it. To sum it up:

h3. lack of image management

All I want is some way to tag images into galleries, have sub-galleries, provide attributes (captions/titles) for images, and then have an easy way to insert them into a wiki page. Just some way that the images don’t become lost amongst the valuable text - because they’re not just there to illustrate the prose.

Oh, and *Visual editing* of the wiki would also be good, if not downright required, as most of the other people interested in this topic are aged 50 or over.

I really hope there’s something already out there that will do this; I don’t want to be writing code for _another_ project…
